My ex-wife is BPD. It was hard to deal with, though I did for near on 6 years. I really did love her, dseeply, but she just got worst and worst. It became impossible to be patient and deal with it day in and day out as I had been doing.

One moment she was kind, compassionate, loving, soft and gentle. Then suddenly she would just become angry, irritated, upset and outright mean and cold. She would argue with me over the stupidest things, make me feel like a piece of shit and then not want to talk to me anymore... an hour or two would go by and she would come back and sneak up behind me, give me a hug and tell me how much she loved me (as if the last few hours didn't ever happen.)

On top of that if a girl flirted with me even lightly while we were out (even though I would never respond to the flirtations in kind) she would get incredibly pissed off and go into silent-cold-killer mode. The jealousy was just unbelievable though I never gave her ANY reason to believe I could possibly cheat on her.

There are many things in life that sucked that I would not care to repeat once again. However, I honestly can say that I would rather cut off my own scrotum with a spoon (slowly) than ever have a relationship with a woman like that again. I feel sorry for her, because I know men out there will just get together with her for sex and then leave her once they realize she is screwed up in the head... but what can one do?
